hands-on-scala-code

Code and exercises solutions for the Li Haoyi's excellent Hands on Scala!

Things I've learned

• Practical Scala advice that were covered in the first few chapters
• How to implement certain algorithms in scala
• Parsing
• Ammonite & Mill
• Async using Futures and parallel programming in Scala
• Web scraping and querying web API's
• Metals and Ammonite script need a comment in VSCode to specifiy which Scala version to use
• Cask, a Scala backend framework and WebSockets

Notes

A lot was also done with Ammonite, so the code isn't complete.

I had to use WSL2 for this, so running the code isn't easy, this repo is more for a quick reference anyway!
